After 31 December 2017, the only UK NARIC Statements of Comparability that will be accepted by CSCS for non-AQP CSCS card applications (for Skilled Worker / Advanced Craft / Supervisory / Manager CSCS cards) will be Statements of Comparability for Construction Skills with Skills Mapping.

You can apply for a Statement of Comparability for Construction Skills with Skills Mapping from 1 December 2017.

Applying for a Statement of Comparability for Construction Skills with Skills Mapping is a 2-stage process:

Stage 1: We issue you with a form to complete, to tell us about the training you have done. This needs to be signed by the organisation that provided your training, and returned to UK NARIC. You also need to send us your qualification certificates and documents. We review all this information and tell you if your qualifications are suitable to go forward to Stage 2, when we do the full skills mapping.

Stage 1 costs £50.00 + VAT* (£60.00). This is not refundable – even if our review of your qualifications shows that you cannot go forward to Stage 2.

Stage 2: We issue you with skills mapping forms to complete – you will need to have this done by the organisation that provided your training. You also need to send us your passport details. We review all this information, map your skills, and verify your qualification. Your skills mapping report will show how your skills match with UK occupational requirements, and if you have any need for additional training.

Stage 2 costs £345.00 + VAT* (£414.00).
